Bar coding for tire manufacturing
Begin bar coding by attaching bar code labels to products:
Raw materials that become rubber
Rubber that becomes components
Components that become tires
Tires that go to your customers

You can bar code products individually (green tires) or packaged in groups (beads).
 
Apply pre-printed bar code labels supplied on rolls, or attach individual bar code tags printed "on demand" as inventory is produced.
